<Editors’ Choice> Evaluation of system-related magnetic resonance imaging geometric distortion in radiation therapy treatment planning: two approaches and effectiveness of three-dimensional distortion correction

We propose two methods to evaluate system-related distortion in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in radiation therapy treatment planning (RTP) and demonstrate the importance of three-dimensional (3D) distortion correction (DC) by quantitatively measuring the distortion magnitude. First, a small pin...

description We propose two methods to evaluate system-related distortion in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in radiation therapy treatment planning (RTP) and demonstrate the importance of three-dimensional (3D) distortion correction (DC) by quantitatively measuring the distortion magnitude. First, a small pin phantom was scanned at multiple positions using an external laser guide for accurate phantom placement and combined into one image encompassing a large area. Direct plane images were used for evaluating in-plane distortion and multiplanar reconstruction images for through-plane distortion with no DC, two-dimensional (2D) DC, and 3D DC. Second, a large grid sheet was scanned as the direct plane of the phantom placement. The distortion magnitude was determined by measuring the displacement between the MRI and reference coordinates. The measured distortions were compared between in- and through-plane when applying DC and between the two methods. The small pin phantom method can be used to evaluate a wide range of distortions, whereas data from the entire plane can be obtained with a single scan using the grid sheet without a laser guide. The mean distortion magnitudes differed between the methods. Furthermore, the 3D DC reduced in- and through-plane distortions. In conclusion, the small pin phantom method can be used to evaluate a wide range of distortions by creating a combined image, whereas the grid sheet method is simpler, accurate, repeatable, and does not require a special-order phantom or laser guide. As 3D DC reduces both in- and through-plane distortions, it can be used to improve RTP quality.
